VIDEO: MALINGA CRASHES ANDRE RUSSEL’S STUMPS WITH DEADLY YORKER; LEAVES BATSMAN STUNNED! 

During the first T20I between Sri Lanka and West Indies, bowler Lasith Malinga stole the limelight with a destructive yorker. He rightly proved himself to be called the 'King of Yorkers' after taking Jamaican cricketer Andre Russell wicket.  

The first match in Pallekele, saw the return of Russell after 18-months break. Malinga welcomed him back to T20I cricket in his own style leaving him shocked. 

The moment took place in the 16th over when Malinga bowled at the base of the off-stump which in return took Russell's wicket. He was striking the ball at 226.37. Russel, who was shocked with his delivery, had no answer but to return back to the pavilion. 

Russel, tried his best and made an impressive knock; he scored 35 runs off 14 balls. West Indies put up a mammoth 196/4 on the board with their highest score in T20Is against Sri Lanka which led them winning the match by 25 runs.
